Collecting automatic watches is about far more than acquiring beautiful timepieces. It is a genuine passion that calls for discipline, care and meticulous attention to detail. To preserve the precision, aesthetics and longevity of your timepieces, certain watch accessories quickly become indispensable. When carefully chosen, they not only help protect your watches, but also showcase them beautifully every day. Here are the 5 essential accessories for every discerning enthusiast or collector.
1. The automatic watch winder: keeping watches in motion
The automatic watch winder is undoubtedly one of the most essential accessories. An automatic watch must be kept in motion to ensure the lubrication of its internal components and prevent complications from becoming desynchronised.
- It reproduces the natural movements of the wrist.
- It keeps the watch on time.
- It prevents repeated and delicate manual adjustments.
Recognised for its intuitive operation, the Startbox Single Watch Winder offers a predefined programme that is perfectly calibrated to care for most automatic watches, without requiring any adjustment. With its carefully designed dimensions, it provides a reliable solution for everyday use.
The Masterbox Watch Winder, meanwhile, is available in several capacities and stands out for its advanced features. In particular, it allows the number and direction of rotations to be precisely adjusted according to the specific requirements of each calibre, for entirely bespoke care.
2. Watchmaking gloves: handling without altering
Handling a watch without the proper care can leave marks, or even alter certain delicate surfaces. Watchmaking gloves help prevent these inconveniences while adding an extra level of care to your routine.
SwissKubik microfibre gloves, developed in collaboration with Keller Trading, offer:
- Mark-free handling.
- Protection against micro-scratches.
- A delicate touch and effective absorption for the care of your timepieces.
Details that make all the difference when it comes to preserving the aesthetics of your watches.
3. The travel case: protecting your watches on the move
For enthusiasts who travel with their timepieces, a suitable case is essential. Its role is to protect your watches from shocks, friction and the stresses of transport.
The SwissKubik Travelbox watch travel case stands out for its 2-in-1 approach:
- Optimal protection during transport.
- A watch winder function once you reach your destination.
Compact and reliable, it accompanies your watches wherever you go, while ensuring they continue to function properly.
4. The watch box: organising and showcasing your collection
When your watches are not being worn, they deserve a dedicated space. A watch box allows you to store, organise and protect your timepieces in a secure environment.
It offers several advantages:
- Protection against dust and shocks.
- Clear organisation of your collection.
- Elegant visual presentation.
It is the ideal complement to a watch winder, especially for watches you wear more occasionally and that do not need to be kept in motion, such as quartz watches.
5. The protective glass: protecting without concealing
Often overlooked, protective glass is nevertheless a particularly useful accessory, especially for exposed watch winders.
SwissKubik offers a simple protective glass compatible with Masterbox Watch Winders, designed to protect both your watches and the winder itself. It prevents any intrusion into the drum while maintaining perfect visibility of your timepieces.
It is a discreet and effective solution for dealing with the demands of everyday life, while preserving the presentation of your collection.
A holistic approach to a passion for watchmaking
Being passionate about watchmaking means paying attention to every detail. From the watch winder to the travel case, and from gloves to protective accessories, each element helps preserve the integrity of your watches and showcase them at their best.
The solutions offered by SwissKubik reflect this exacting approach, combining technology, design and Swiss savoir-faire. More than simple accessories, they become indispensable allies for a collection maintained with precision and elegance.
